"Super healthy soup recipe I found from "World's Healthiest Foods" website. "Very quick and easy to prepare. Lots of flavor high in vegetable protein without being high in fat; good vegetarian meal on a cold day." To be sure it is truly healthy, be sure to use organic or all natural broths and even spices as many contain msg and/or preservatives."
